| Abstrakt: | Background: In the realm of endometrial cancer (EC) therapeutics and prognostic assessments, lymph nodes' status is paramount. The sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection, recognized for its reliability, has been progressively adopted as a standard procedure, posing a compelling alternative to conventional systematic lymphadenectomy. However, there remains a lack of agreement on the most effective choice of tracers for this procedure. Objective: This investigation was dedicated to a comparative analysis of various tracers to identify the most effective combination that achieves the highest detection rate. This endeavor sought to enhance the efficacy of SLN biopsy in the surgical management of EC. Methods: A systematic review was conducted across multiple databases, including the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and clinicaltrials.gov, to analyze studies employing different tracers for SLN biopsy during surgery in EC. Using Bayesian network meta-analysis, we compared the total and bilateral detection rates of various tracers. Results: After screening 1431 articles, 11 studies including 2699 participants were selected in this network meta-analysis. The combination of radioactive isotopes and indocyanine green (ICG) emerged as the most efficacious method in total and bilateral detection rates, with the Surface Under the Cumulative Ranking Curve (SUCRA) scores of 80.00% and 86.36%, respectively. Additionally, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) demonstrated superior performance in the detection of para-aortic lymph nodes with an SUCRA score of 97.77%. Conclusion: Network meta-analysis shows that the application of radioactive isotopes and ICG is the optimal tracer combination for SLN biopsy during surgery in EC. (Copyright © 2024 The Author(s).
